full of things to see and do. Best of all, with so many experiences close by it’s easy
to hop from one adventure to the next.

A stunning natural playground

Auckland’s
diverse landscapes provide countless opportunities to get immersed in nature. In the

sand beaches, while the east’s sheltered golden sand beaches are fringed with
red-flowering pohutukawa trees. To the north the rolling hills of wine country meet
stunning coastlines and in the south you'll find picturesque country gardens, unspoilt
forest and tranquil bays to explore.

shopaholic's paradise, with everything from top-end designers to open air street
markets. Discover the diverse range of cafes and restaurants offering cuisine from
around the globe and check out the buzzing nightlife of the central city. Favourite
spots include Wynyard Quarter, the Viaduct Harbour, City Works Depot and the Britomart
precinct.Once you've seen the city, head out to one of Auckland's four distinct wine
districts where you can sample local wines against the backdrop of vine-covered hills
and sparkling ocean.

Island, a haven of beautiful vineyards, olive groves, farm land and golden beaches; and
